Tools Details:
The Simple Shear Cutting Finisher (5/8" round) is a finishing tool that leaves an excellent surface finish so sanding is reduced to a minimum. Requires a bit of practice to master but is often the favorite tool of them all.
The Simple Rougher (1/2" square) carbide tool makes roughing much simpler & less physical as most of the shock created by interrupted cuts is absorbed in the tool rest instead of your hands & arms. The 6" Radius cutter is the popular choice and the easiest cutter to use. You can also swap the cutter for the negative rake angle cutter.
The Simple 55 Detailer (1/2" square) carbide tool that provides a much higher level of woodturning creativity.
CNC machined from 1/2" square and 5/8" round stainless steel, making them stronger & stiffer. These full size tools feature an overall length of 12", with a handle tang of ½" diameter x 2½" length. These tools will work in the Simple Hollowing System.
